Never eat a mushroom growing wild unless you are a fungi expert or have a fungi expert with you.
This is a fairy ring. It is caused by the mushroom spreading out year by year.
Arthur John Simons has written: 'Mushroom growing' -- subject(s): Mushroom culture
First, you need a substrate, which is a bed of organic matter with nutrients that are specific to the mushroom species you wish to grow. Second, you need spores that come from a mushroom of that species. Third, you need the right conditions, such as temperature and humidity, for the spore to begin growing fungus on the substrate. Once the fungus matures, it will begin growing a mushroom to reproduce more spores. Once the mushroom matures, the spores will be released from underneath the mushroom cap.
A crimi mushroom is a unopen portabella mushroom. Sometimes they stop growing and a firm small brown mushroom is the result. They used to be used as feed for livestock but, found a market value in the early 90's Chef CCC.CFSM
